    There was a small leak that was reported to a security guard who didn't give a **** on Tuesday, and there were some guys working on it today who had gone outside for a few minutes when a two foot wide waterfall started.

    And yes, that is Hugh Gibbons. The man, the legend.

    They were indeed, I'm very impressed. Even a date when they'll be back, none of this "until further notice" nonsense.

    I hope the newspaper articles on Carl's door survive. Some of them are great reading.

    He came back in, saying "I know, I know. They know upsatirs too. I really have to run to sort out my office."

    Only when I went in there with him that I realised that everything is just in piles on the floor...

    Yup. Especially since the actual floor in LG12 is actually about a metre below the wooden latts.

    The water just kept spewing down below.

    Monday? I don't think so. Remember when someone lit a bog roll on fire in the Hamilton jacks last February and the place was closed for practically the rest of the year.
